Definitions

  • This invention relates generally to the use of recombinant DNA methods for genetically altering plants, and more particularly, to improved means for altering plant phenotypes, such as color patterns and color intensity of flowers and other plant parts.
  • the water soluble pigment flavonoids are significant in their contribution to the coloration and other properties of higher plants.
  • the flavonoids are responsible for most orange, scarlet, crimson, mauve, violet and blue colors, and contribute significantly to yellow, ivory and cream colored flowers.
  • the most important of the pigment molecules are the anthocyanins, particularly pelargonidin, cyanidin and delphinidin. These are the darker colored pigments responsible for the orange-red, magenta and mauve colors, respectively.
  • the other major flavonoid types the chalcones, isomeric flavanones, flavones and flavonols are light colored and tend to have relatively smaller effects on intensity or patterns of color.
  • the functions of these pigments extend well beyond coloration of flowers, however.
  • the pigments also color fruits, leaves and other plant parts, and importantly provide plants with UV protection, as well as protection against herbivores and microbes. Other uses include allelopathy and even some pharmaceutical applications.
  • the biosynthetic pathways of these various pigments have been extensively studied in many different plant species.
  • the chalcones and aurones are products requiring only the initial biosynthetic enzymes, being direct products of the earliest precursors.
  • the flavones and flavonols are intermediate, and the anthocyanins are products requiring substantial modifications from the initial precursors. All of these products are dependent upon the activity of the initial enzyme chalcone synthase (CHS) , which catalyses the production of chalcone from three molecules of malonyl- Coenzyme A and one molecule of coumaroyl-Coenzyme A.
  • CHS chalcone synthase
  • Mankind has traditionally intervened in some of the natural processes by, e.g., simply selecting particular flower colors and patterns which might otherwise not have survived in nature. Breeders routinely generate new and unusual flower phenotypes by a variety of time-tested breeding methods. The classical techniques for breeding improved plants, such as different flower varieties with altered flower color intensities or color patterns, typically required natural genetic variability within the experimental gene pool of the species and its relatives. More recently, the generation of variability by induction of mutations has been utilized. Breeders then select among the resulting population those products exhibiting interesting phenotypes, for further characterization.
  • plants exhibiting desired trait(s) can be selected from • cransgenores comprising a nucleic acid segment operably linked to a promoter, wherein transcription products of the segment are substantially homologous to corresponding transcripts of an endogenous gene.
  • the transgenotes are grown into plants, such as flowering plants capable of exhibiting novel traits, including a reduction in color intensity, an altered pattern color, or a change in basic color of the plant flowers or other plant organs.
  • the invention further embraces the introduction of one or more metabolic enzyme gene regions, e.g., flavonoid biosynthetic pathway gene regions, under the control of promoter regions (either native or heterologous) , into dicots and other plants in which the gene is endogenous.
  • the invention comprises plants, such as those of the genera Petunia and Chrysanthemum. wherein the plant is grown from a cell transformed with a sequence which is transcribed into an RNA sequence substantially homologous (other than anti-sense) to a desired gene.
  • the gene is a flavonoid biosynthetic pathway gene.
  • DNA or RNA equivalents are introduced into plants in a way to produce more of the endogenous (already present) transcript, but not to produce solely an anti-sense transcript. This is preferably accomplished by using a DNA segment (natural or constructed) in which the promoter is positioned in the normal orientation at the 5 1 end of the encoding region so that a "sense" transcript (rather than antisense transcript) will be produced.
  • the plant cells can be transformed with a variety of vectors, such as viral vectors, episomal vectors, shuttle vectors, Ti plasmid vectors and the like, all in accordance with well known procedures.
  • the invention also embraces methods for reducing expression of endogenous nucleic acid sequences coding for proteins acting in various biosynthetic or other enzyme pathways, such as the flavonoid biosynthetic pathway of a plant, the method comprising the step of introducing into a cell of the plant a DNA sequence substantially homologous to the endogenous sequence and under the operational control of a promoter sequence, such as a cauliflower mosaic virus sequence.
  • the DNA segment will be sufficient to introduce the repression effect into the plant and typically comprises at least about 50 nucleotides but may be a full length gene.
  • the invention comprises the methods of preparing and using the various DNA constructs of the present invention.
  • FIG. 1 shows the construction of exemplary plasmids of the present invention.
  • the present invention provides novel methods for producing plants, and embraces the plants so produced, and methods of their use.
  • the invention is based in part on the discovery that a reduction in expression (i.e., repression) of a cellular gene product may be attained upon introduction into the cell of a nucleic acid fragment, e.g., a flavonoid biosynthetic pathway gene sequence, that is ultimately transcribed to yield a mRNA transcript substantially homologous to a portion of the gene's transcript.
  • the introduced transcript is preferably produced prior to native transcript (if any) , but may be produced simultaneously with native transcript production.
  • a plant grown from it will exhibit a variety of different phenotypic traits.
  • selecting plants with varying phenotypes, for instance color patterns and intensity, typically without harming other desirable plant characteristics, can be readily achieved in accordance with the present invention.
  • an exemplar preferred embodiment of the present invention entails introducing a full-length chalcone synthase (CHS) coding sequence in an orientation which would be operably linked to a cauliflower mosaic virus promoter into Petunia hybrida cells. These transgenotes are grown into plants and variations in rlower coloration are selected. The modified flowers exhibit substantially all of the characteristics of the native Petunia hybrida plants.
  • CHS chalcone synthase
  • a variety of traits are selectable with appropriate procedures and sufficient numbers of transgenotes. Such traits include, but are not limited to, visible traits, environmental or stress related traits, disease related traits, and ripening traits.
  • the repressive effect is applicable to a variety of genes expressed in plants including, for example, genes responsible for the synthesis or metabolism of peptides, proteins, fatty acids, lipids, waxes, oils, starches, sugars, carbohydrates, flavors, odors, fragrances, toxins, carotenoid pigments, hormones, cell wall polymers, gene regulatory molecules, flavonoids, storage proteins, phenolic acids, coumarins, alkaloids, quinones, lignins, glucosinolates, tannins, aliphatic amines, celluloses, polysaccharides, glycoproteins and glycolipids.
  • an alteration in the production of fatty acids or lipids can be engineered (and fatty acid composition of, e.g., an oil-producing plant thus altered) by blocking synthesis of a specific chain elongation or desaturation enzyme.
  • the synthesis of starch can be reduced and sugars accumulated (and sugar content of, e.g., an edible plant thus altered) by blocking an enzyme required for starch synthesis.
  • fragrant molecules can be released from cells (thus altering the scent characteristics of, e.g., ornamental flowers) by blocking the enzymes responsible for glycosylation of such molecules.
  • the flavonoid genes giving rise to visible traits.
  • the traits or coior intensity, color hue and color pattern are subject to the repression effect.
  • flavonoid biosynthetic pathway includes those nucleic acid sequences directly involved in reactions or control of reactions which synthesize or modify a flavonoid compound.
  • Flavonoids are a class of compounds, numbering about 3000 whose functions in plants include coloration in flowers, fruits, leaves, and other organs. Examples of flavonoid biosynthetic genes include those for chalcone synthases, chalcone isomerases
  • CHI flavanone 3-hydroxylases, dihydroflavonol reductases, flavanone 2-hydroxylases, dihydroflavanol 2-hydroxylases, flavonoid 3'-hydroxylases, flavonoid 5'-hydroxylases, flavonoid glycosyltransferases (including glucosyl transferases such as UDPG: flavonoid 3-O-glucosyl transferase and UDPG: flavonol 7-O-glucosyl transferase, and rhamnosyl transferases) , flavonoid methyltransferases (such as SAM:anthocyanidin 3-(p-coumaroyl)-rutinoside-5-glucoside 3' ,5*-0-methyltransferase) and flavonoid acyltransferases.
  • glucosyl transferases such as UDPG: flavonoid 3-O-glucosyl transferase and UDPG: flavonol 7-O-glucosyl transfer
  • Anthocyanin pigmented flowers have colors throughout the range orange to red to purple to blue. Chalcones and aurones are yellow or orange. Flavones and flavonols are very light yellow, or "cream” colored. Flavanones are colorless. Elimination of anthocyanins and diversion of the pathway to flavone or flavonol production would create cream colored flowers. Shifts from blue to purple or purple to red or red to orange can be engineered by interfering with 3 1 or 5' hydroxylases of 2-hydroxylases. Interference with 2-hydroxylases can also reduce color intensity of anthocyanin pigmented plants. Interference with CHS would create white flowers and with chalcone isomerase would create yellow flowers.
  • bi-color patterns can be created, the two colors being the color of the target plant before engineering and the color resulting from the expression of the introduced flavonoid gene.
  • Types of patterns include: radial star-like patterns; picotee (white outer edge) ; white annular center; concentric colored rings; erratic, irregular patterns, e.g., variegated or blotchy. There are many variations on these patterns, some more attractive than others, some with sharp boundaries between colors, some with diffuse boundaries, some with linear boundaries, some with wavy, curved boundaries. Also lighter, solid colors are observed.
  • the present invention is also applicable to generate plants exhibiting modified absolute levels or relative proportions of various oil products.
  • genes encoding enzymes involved in lipid metabolism may be used, in the methods described, to modify metabolism of oils and other lipids, such as fats.
  • the oils are lipids which typically are liquid at room temperatures and typically will have various unsaturations in the fatty acid components and shorter lipid chains than the fats. See generally. Lehninger (1978) Biochemistry (2d Ed), Worth Publishers, New York; and Bonner and Varner (1976) Plant Biochemistry (3d Ed) , Academic Press, New York. Much is also known about the applicable biosynthetic pathways at the genetic level. See, e.g., the following, and references cited therein: Shure et al. (198), Cell 35:225-233; Preiss et al..
  • the relative proportions or absolute content of various different types of oils may be thereby altered, and using information known in the art about sugar-starch biosynthetic pathways at the genetic level (see, e.g., citations on same above) .
  • Various enzymes of particular interest would include, among others, stearyl desaturase, acetyl transacylase, malonyl transacylase, / 3-ket ⁇ acyl ACP- synthetase, 0-keto ACP-reductase, enoyl ACP-hydrase, acyl-ACP thioesterases and enoyl ACP-reductase.
  • the present invention is also applicable to the alteration of sugar metabolism or carbohydrate metabolism in plants.
  • genes encoding enzymes used in carbohydrate metabolism are used to regulate enzymatic expression and activity to modify sizes of pools of metabolic intermediates or kinetics of conversion, thereby changing the starch or sugar contents of various plants.
  • Genes encoding various enzymes in carbohydrate metabolism may be introduced into a target plant to alter the expression of various enzymes in the pathways.
  • Various enzymes of particular interest in carbohydrate metabolism include phosphorylase, starch synthetase, Q-enzyme, sucrose- 6-phosphate synthetase, sucrose-6-phosphate phosphatase, ADP- glucose pyrophosphorylase and various amylases. See generally.
  • Suitable sources for gene sequences usable in accordance with the present invention are plants, in particular higher plants.
  • plants normally possess a flavonoid biosynthetic pathway of some type.
  • any flavonoid pathway which generates naringenin chalcone or compounds generated from naringenin chalcone which itself is generated from coumaroyl-Coenzyme A and alonyl-Coenzyme A by chalcone synthase will be appropriate.
  • nucleic acid sequences are varied, and the preferred embodiments will describe a number of features which the person of skill in the art may recognize as not being absolutely essential, but clearly advantageous. These include isolation methods of the particular sequence to be introduced, certain features of the sequence and certain features of the associated vector, if any. Transcriptional expression of the introduced gene is generally important, and —without intending to be limited to a particular mechanism— additional production of a transcript relative to the normal expression of the endogenous form of the sequence is likely part of the underlying mechanism, especially prior to attainment of peak levels of endogenous gene expression. However, other mechanisms may be involved, for instance, mere physical presence of exogenous copies of_these genes, e.g., in higher copy numbers or integrated into particular genetic locations, may contribute to the repressive effect.

  • RNA which is homologous to a gene is RNA which corresponds to the template strand sequence (with the normal exception of uracil for RNA in place of thymidine for DNA) .
  • cellularly produced "homologous mRNA” is not complementary to the template DNA strand of the gene.
  • mRNA may contain "coding regions" of codon triplets which encode for translation into amino acids making up the polypeptide.
  • a primary transcript may contain both exons (typically containing the coding regions) and introns, the latter of which are often excised prior to translation.
  • an endogenous gene e.g., a gene in the flavonoid pathway
  • a gene in the flavonoid pathway yields varying levels of transcript depending on the type of cell and its developmental stage.
  • certain cells e.g., cells that give rise to petal epidermal tissue, produce or begin to produce a transcript at a level which rises at or subsequent to flower meristem initiation.
  • the transcript level reaches a peak later in flower development and eventually decreases.
  • This rise and fall of transcript level may occur over a series of days, e.g., 7-14 days.
  • the rise may also occur rapidly, e.g., over a period of hours, especially in the event of induction such as by UV or visible light (see, Mol et al., (1983) Mol. Gen.
  • Genet. 192:424-429 which is incorporated herein by reference) , particularly under natural summer light conditions (or the artificial equivalent thereof) .
  • the transcript level is usually decreasing at the mature flower stage (flower maturation) .
  • One proposed mechanism of repression would require that some transcription of the introduced sequence be produced, e.g., transcription of introduced DNA homologous to transcribed endogenous DNA (although transcription of introduced DNA homologous to untranscribed endogenous DNA may also be involved).
  • observed genes' endogenous transcription levels dropped about 50-fold in v comparison to native conditions.
  • the introduced genes' transcript levels were also low with respect to the endogenous genes' levels, but the total was also lower.
  • the introduced sequence need not necessarily correspon to the final translated message or a part thereof, there are likely corresponding forms of the mRNA which are functional in repression, but still contain parts of introns or only non-translated segments of the primary transcript of the normal endogenous sequence.
  • the effect may occur where the introduced sequence contains no coding sequence per se. but only intron or untranslated sequences substantially homologous to sequences present in the primary transcript of the endogenous sequence.
  • the present invention is not necessarily tied to any specific mechanism, the mechanism may involve methylation of both the introduced and the endogenous homologous sequences (methylation is known to be able to spread from a sequence to adjacent sequences) .
  • the introduced sequence generally will be substantially homologous to the endogenous sequence intended to be repressed, such that the controlling elements recognize that the introduced sequence is present, the interaction results in the repressive effect.
  • This minimal homology will typically be greater than about 65%, but a higher homology might exert a more effective repression of expression of the endogenous sequences.
  • Substantially greater homology, or more than about 8d% is preferred, though about 95% to absolute identity would be most preferred. Consequently, the effect should apply to any other proteins within a similar family of genes exhibiting homology or substantial homology.
  • the chalcone synthase protein may be encoded by one or more homologous genes which comprise the chalcone synthase gene family, and repression of one member of the family will typically serve to impose the same repressive effect on others of the family.
  • chalcone synthase genes from other plant species may be utilized.
  • the introduced sequence needing less than absolute homology, also need not be full length, relative to either the primary transcription product or fully processed mRNA.
  • a higher homology in a shorter than full length sequence compensates for a longer less homologous sequence.
  • the introduced sequence need not have the same intron or exon pattern, and homology of non-coding segments will be equally effective. Normally, a sequence of greater than 50-100 nucleotides should be used, though a sequence of greater than about 200-300 nucleotides would be preferred, and a sequence of greater than 500-1000 nucleotides would be especially preferred depending on the size of the endogenous gene.
  • a full length coding sequence is unnecessary, it is possible to produce the same effect on multiple proteins using a single transformation by fusing multiple sequences together to coordinately repress various different genes. Assuming a sufficient number of introductions are made, the introduced sequence need not be linked to an operative promoter sequence. However, a promoter sequence would be preferred, particularly a partially or fully constitutive promoter. "Operably linked” refers to functional linkage between the affecting sequence (such as a promoter or 3' segments) and the controlled nucleic acid sequence. The same effect would be produced by the introduction of a promoter operably linked to the coding strand of an endogenous sequence.
  • This can be effected by either the introduction of a promoter alone to a site operably linked to the target sequence, or by the reintroduction of a sequence of endogenous origin recombinantly attached to an operably linked promoter (resulting in a chimeric gene) .
  • a heterologous sequence is one that originates from a foreign species, or, if from the same species, is substantially modified from its original form.
  • relevant factors include the type of promoter, the temporal pattern of the promoter, and the operation of the promoter in view of its position within the genome.
  • a promoter which is expressed concurrently with or prior to the normal activation of the homologous endogenous sequence is preferred.
  • a constitutive promoter is most preferred, such as the cauliflower mosaic virus promoter. This promoter is constitutive because its operation is relatively independent of the developmental stage of the cell in which it is contained.
  • a regulated promoter such as ones associated with the ribulose-1,5- bisphosphate carboxylase, the chlorophyll binding proteins or the glycine-rich root protein genes are also suitable. This control may be either temporal with respect to the developmental stage of the cell, or based upon differential expression by different parts or organs of the plant.
  • a regulated promoter may operate differently from how it does in its normal location, e.g., it may become fully or partially constitutive.
  • This distance should be within about 1000 nucleotides, preferably within about 500 nucleotides and more preferably within about 300 nucleotides of the translation initiation codon.
  • operably linked segments may also be included.
  • a 3' untranslated region containing the polyadenylation site and any relevant transcription termination sites may also be included.
  • a 3' sequence of less than about 1000 nucleotides is sufficient, about 500 preferred and about 300, or the length of the 3• untranslated tail of the endogenous seguence is more preferred.
  • the introduced gene is an intact gene from the target plant or other plant species (meaning a complete gene containing coding sequences, intron, promoter, enhancers and other cis-acting regulatory elements either upstream (5 1 ) or downstream (3 » ) of the coding sequences), a fraction of independent transgenotes, depending on the gene, may carry the introduced gene in locations that result in abnormal expression, i.e., expression at abnormal times in development.
  • the introduced gene is a chimeric gene tnat one or more elements, such as a promoter, from another gene has been substituted for a component of the intact gene or added to the intact gene, including coding sequences fused to upstream and downstream sequences necessary or beneficial for expression) and is driven by a constitutive (fully or partially) promoter, then abnormal levels and times of expression will be achieved in a large fraction of transgenotes.
  • the introduced gene is a chimeric gene and is driven by a developmentally regulated promoter, depending on the promoter, some fraction of transgenotes will show abnormal levels and times of expression of the introduced gene.
  • the strength of the promoter or other cis element can be the same, lower, or higher than the coding sequence's usual promoter.
  • the timing in development can be earlier or the same.
  • transgenotes may be identical to the parental plants, others may have reduced amounts of colored or colorless flavonoids throughout the petals or other organs of interest, others may have reduced amounts of flavonoids in certain cells or patches of cells or segments of petals or other organs resulting in regular or irregular patterns. Flowers on the same plant may even have different patterns.
  • the likelihood of obtaining a desirable transgenote will depend upon the number of transgenotes screened and the efficiency of actual transformation and expression of the foreign nucleic acid sequence. Typically, at least about 25 to 50 transgenotes will be screened, but 100 to 500 or more may need to be screened before the described effect is seen.
  • nucleic acid to exert the described repressive effect is broad. Assuming appropriate selection procedures and sufficient numbers of transgenotes, a wide variety of plant genes could display this effect. For example, genes responsible for the synthesis or metabolism of peptides, proteins, fatty acids, lipids, waxes, oils.
  • Screening may be by (1) nucleic acid hybridization using homologous genes from other organisms, (2) probes synthetically produced to hybridize to particular sequences coding for known protein sequences, or (3) DNA sequencing and comparison to known sequences. Sequences for specific genes may be found, e.g., in GenBank, National Institutes of Health (computer database) , or may be determined after isolation, typically using techniques as described.
  • Flavonoid genes may be enriched in libraries by differential hybridization which requires that the mRNA of the target genes be expressed more abundantly in one tissue than in another. Labelled RNA or cDNA from each tissue is hybridized to replicas of the library and tissue specific clones are identified and isolated. Screening can then be used to identify the target gene among the set of tissue specific genes (Kreuzaler et al., (1983) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 80:2591-2593) . Antibody screening of expression libraries with antibodies made against homologous proteins can select nucleic acid sequences which would code for homologous functions. Selection of sequences homologous to a known flavonoid biosynthetic pathway protein will enable isolation of other forms or equivalent forms from different sources.
  • Transposon tagging can assist in the isolation of the relevant gene.
  • Transposon tagging typically involves a mutation of the target gene. A mutation is isolated in which a transposon has inserted into the target gene and altered the resulting phenotype. Using a probe for the transposon, the mutant gene can be isolated. Then, using the DNA adjacent to the transposon in the isolated mutant gene as a probe, the normal wild type allele of the target gene can be isolated (McLaughlin and Walbot (1987) Genetics 117:771-776; Dooner et al., (1985) Mol. Gen. Genetics 200:240-246; and Federoff et al., (1984) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 81:3825- 3829) .
  • the homology between the inserted gene and the endogenous gene need not be absolutely identical. Foreign homologous genes would also be subject to this same repression phenomenon. As stated, the repressive effect can occur with many different genes. It is exemplified herein, inter alia, with respect to flavonoid pathway genes.
  • plant refers to either a whole plant, a plant part, a plant cell, or a group of plant cells.
  • the class of plants which can be used in the method of the invention is generally as broad as the class of higher plants amenable to transformation techniques, including both monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous plants. It includes plants of a variety of ploidy levels, including polyploid, diploid and haploid.
  • the invention is easily characterized with particular application to plants which express the flavonoid pathway genes.
  • At least some of the flavonoid pathway genes are essentially ubiquitous in higher plants; their products are found in flowers or other plant organs (such as leaves, stems, roots, tubers, bracts, sepals, fruits, vegetables) which are colored. These colors are provided largely by anthocyanin pigments, other flavonoid pigments, copigments, or colorless flavonoids synthesized from chalcone by the plant.

  • Flower colors are commonly very dependent on the activity of the flavonoid pathway genes, and thus are especially sensitive to the absolute and relative levels of expression of the flavonoid biosynthetic pathway genes. Ornamental plants and flowers are valuable commercially, and thus are typical targets of the methods herein described.

  • transformation means alteration of the genotype of a host plant by the introduction of a nucleic acid sequence.
  • the nucleic acid sequence need not necessarily originate from a different source, but it will, at some point, have been external to the cell into which it is to be introduced.
  • the foreign nucleic acid is mechanically transferred by microinjection directly into plant cells by use of micropipettes.
  • the foreign nucleic acid may be transferred into the plant cell by using polyethylene glycol. This forms a precipitation complex with the genetic material that is taken up by the cell (Paszkowski et al., (1984) EMBQ J. 3:2717-22).
  • the introduced gene may be introduced into the plant cells by electroporation (Fromm et al., (1985) "Expression of Genes Transferred into Mon ⁇ cot and Dicot Plant Cells by Electroporation," Proc. Natl Acad. Sci. USA 82:5824, which is incorporated herein by reference) .
  • plant protoplasts are electroporated in the presence of plasmids or nucleic acids containing the relevant genetic construct. Electrical impulses of high field strength reversibly permeabilize biomembranes allowing the introduction of the plasmids. Electroporated plant protoplasts reform the cell wall, divide, and form a plant callus. Selection of the transformed plant cells with the transformed gene can be accomplished using phenotypic markers.
  • Cauliflower mosaic virus may also be used as a vector for introducing the foreign nucleic acid into plant cells (Hohn et al., (1982) "Molecular Biology of Plant Tumors," Academic Press, New York, pp.549-560; Howell, United States Patent No. 4,407,956).
  • CaMV viral DNA genome is inserted into a parent bacterial plasmid creating a recombinant DNA molecule which can be propagated in bacteria. After cloning, the recombinant plasmid again may be cloned and further modified by introduction of the desired DNA sequence into the unique restriction site of the linker. The modified viral portion of the recombinant plasmid is then excised from the parent bacterial plasmid, and used to inoculate the plant cells or plants.
  • nucleic acid segments Another method of introduction of nucleic acid segments is high velocity ballistic penetration by small particles with the nucleic acid either within the matrix of small beads or particles, or on the surface (Klein et al., (1987) Nature 327:70-73). Although typically only a single introduction of a new nucleic acid segment is required, this method particularly provides for multiple introductions.
  • a preferred method of introducing the nucleic acid segments into plant cells is to infect a plant cell, an explant, a meristem or a seed with Agrobacterium tumefaciens transformed with the segment. Under appropriate conditions known in the art, the transformed plant cells are grown to form shoots, roots, and develop further into plants.
  • the nucleic acid segments can be introduced into appropriate plant cells, for example, by means of the Ti plasmid of Agrobacterium tumefaciens.
  • the Ti plasmid is transmitted to plant cells upon infection by Agrobacterium tumefaciens. and is stably integrated into the plant genome (Horsch et al., (1984) "Inheritance of Functional Foreign Genes in Plants," Science. 233:496-498; Fraley et al., (1983) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 80:4803).

  • Method (2) requires (a) that the plant cells or tissues can be transformed by Agrobacterium and (b) that the transformed cells or tissues can be induced to regenerate into whole plants.
  • Method (3) requires micropropagation.
  • T-DNA containing plasmid In the binary system, to have infection, two plasmids are needed: a T-DNA containing plasmid and a vir plasmid. Any one of a number of T-DNA containing plasmids can be used, the only requirement is that one be able to select independently for each of the two plasmids.
  • those plant cells or plants transformed by the Ti plasmid so that the desired DNA segment is integrated can be selected by an appropriate phenotypic marker.
  • phenotypic markers include, but are not limited to, antibiotic resistance, herbicide resistance or visual observation. Other phenotypic markers are known in the art and may be used in this invention.
  • All plants from which protoplasts can be isolated and cultured to give whole regenerated plants can be transformed by the present invention so that whole plants are recovered which contain the transferred foreign gene.

  • regeneration as used herein, means growing a whole plant from a plant cell, a group of plant cells, a plant part or a plant piece (e.g. from a protoplast, callus, or tissue part).
  • Regeneration from protoplasts varies from species to species of plants, but generally a suspension of transformed protoplasts containing copies of the exogenous sequence is first made. In certain species embryo formation can then be induced from the protoplast suspension, to the stage of ripening and germination as natural embryos.
  • the culture media will generally contain various amino acids and hormones, such as auxin and cytokinins. It is sometimes advantageous to add gluta ic acid and proline to the medium, especially for such species as corn and alfalfa. Shoots and roots normally develop simultaneously. Efficient regeneration will depend on the medium, on the genotype, and on the history of the culture. If these three variables are controlled, then regeneration is fully reproducible and repeatable.

(1985) Plant Mol. Biol. 5:149-154). Selection for kanamycin or chlorsulfuron resistance was initiated 8 days after protoplast isolation. Co-cultured plant cells were plated on a medium containing either kanamycin (50 ⁇ g/ml or chlorsulfuron (2ng/ml) , and this medium was replaced twic weekly. Plants were regenerated by placing colonies on the medium of Murashige and Skoog (Murashige and Skoog (1962)

Following co- cultivation, protoplasts were divided and plated on chlorsulfuron (2ng/ml) or kanamycin (50ug/ml) . Transformation with pAGS182BV produced seven chlorsulfuron resistant clones. Transformed calli and the regenerated plants derived from these calli were maintained on lOng/ml chlorsulfuron until transfer to the greenhouse.
  • Each herbicide resistant transformant was tested for kanamycin resistance by transferring callus pieces to plates containing 200ug kanamycin/ml and monitoring survival. Of the 7 chlorsulfuron resistant transformants selected, 2 (HR11 and HR15) were also kanamycin resistant.
  • the other four chlorsulfuron resistant transformants had hybridization patterns which were identica to untransformed tobacco (data not shown) ; hence, it is presumed they have arisen from spontaneous mutation at the SuRA or SuRB loci.
  • the Southern hybridization patterns for DNA from HRll, HR14 and HR15 showed the 1.2kb and 0.8kb band predicted to result from homologous recombination at the SuR loci.
  • DNA from HRll and HR14 there appeared to be no AL hybridizing bands other than those attributed to homologous recombination, suggesting additional T-DNA random insertion events had not occurred.
  • HR15 three extra hybridizing ALS bands occurred, suggesting three additional insertions of T-DNA in this transformant.

  • the 2.6kb band predicted following homologo recombination at SuRB appeared only in DNA from the putativ re ⁇ ombinants HRll, HR14 and HR15.
  • the other hybridizing fragments in these DNAs apparently represent the Spel-Apal fragments generated from the random insertion of the T-DNA carrying the targeting ALS gene into the genome.
  • HR had at least two other hybridizing bands in the Spel-Apal digestions. An additional band was also seen in HRll DNA, suggesting at least one T-DNA random insertion.
  • Chlorsulfuron resistance segregates as a single Mendelian gene in the recombinant plants HRll and HR14
  • the observed phenotype of the HR15 plant is consistent with the introduced resistant fragment of the ALS gene, which replaced the sensitive form of the gene at the SuRB locus, being suppressed by the additional three other copies which occur (in a non-expressed state) in the genome.
  • This suppression was not immediate upon the introduction of the resistant ALS genes since the callus from which HR15 was derived was herbicide resistant; however, with the ongoing cell division and plant regeneration, the herbicide resistant phenotype was suppressed.
